Using GMail-proprietary extensions in email is probably one of the worst ideas ever conceived.
- byoung2 3y agoIt just uses open source markup from https://schema.org/ https://schema.org/, so there is no reason that other email clients couldn't implement it as well.
- michaelmior 3y agoI'd really like to see Fastmail or Proton Mail implement this, but I think the majority of their customers would probably prefer they didn't.
- michaelmior 3y agoWhy do you say that? As another commenter points out, the actions there is at least some standard associated with the actions. I also think they can degrade pretty gracefully if not supported. Certainly that's the case with Actions. Non-Gmail users will probably never be aware they exist.
- housemusicfan 3y agoIf Google feels so strongly about this, they can publish an RFC for it. We went through this with Microsoft 20 years ago. Let's not repeat history.
